The best part of what makes YouTube great is still there. Music. Live, Old, Flashbacks, Soul Train, Midnight Special etc. YouTube is the best thing on the internet.
The worst aspect of it are YouTubers. They weren't really bad until monetization took hold. A giant vat of attention whoars. I do have my favorites, but by and large, just getting kinda tedious. Corporations are just utterly subsuming them.
pRICE cUBE just mentioned Sony's neat new zoom lens. So I took a look. Apparently, after that, everybody that reviews camera stuff had that date when they could begin to yak about it. YouTube thinks I want to see every one of those videos. Stop.
I like Doug Demuro. But sometimes he'll mention how what he reviews is dependent on how well he'll anticipate the video performing. It's such a business now, instead of just a guy trippin' off of cars. I do like him though.
Just enjoyed a bunch of Luther Vandross clips.
Saw by happenstance my friend Ingrid, who just died, at the tail end of a Soul Train line video. I showed it to her husband and that made him happy. All those great grandparents.
Ingrid is the last dancer (a light bronze dress), looking all elegant and beautiful. She loved Egypt and always had a pyramid cut into her short afro her entire adult life. https://youtu.be/UhZFzrPsIwM
